a great show at each of its 8 rounds during the season with some breathtaking racing!

In the non-ground effect Fittipaldi and Stewart Championship, the ever-determined

In the post-78 Championship it was a Williams 1-2-3. Nick Padmore was dominant in
2018 taking 9 overall race wins at the 5 rounds he competed in. Nick and the Williams
FW07 seemed to be in perfect harmony throughout 2018, hardly missing a beat, taking

Nürburgring and Spa. The ever-improving Mike Cantillon clinched the 3rd place at the
final round at Dijon in October.

Jason Wright was crowned as ‘The Grand Master’ for 2018, taking the honours in this
new Championship to recognise the years of support and enthusiasm the senior
drivers have given to Masters and our sport as a whole. Joaquin Folch Rusinol was
second and Andrew Beaumont was third.
